Answer:

Correct answer is to excommunicate Martin Luther and label him a heretic.

Step-by-step explanation:

After Luther nailed 95 Theses to the door of church in Wittenberg, he started a movement that would totally change the role of church.

Luther was called to change his attitude, but he refused. Therefore he was excommuned and at the Diet of Worms an Edict was issued proclaiming Luther heretic.

Luther didn't bother much and he continued his fight for reforms.
